Dog Supplies Review: Chuckit! Mega Ball Launcher
Chuckit! Promise:
- Throw farther, faster, and never bend down to pick up a slimy ball
- Durable plastic wand firmly grasps an extra big tennis ball then releases it as you swing
- With a little practice, you can consistently throw the ball 100 to 140 feet
- Great for bigger dogs
Sniffing Snout Review:
My husband, Jason, was the person that introduced me to the Chuckit! Ball Launcher. I’ve never been too grossed out by a soggy tennis ball, so it never occurred to me that a tool like this might come in handy. Jason found a saliva drenched, drool covered ball was too overwhelming so he picked up a Chuckit! This is a great tool because 1) you never need to go near a slobbery tennis ball again, 2) unless you are part of MLB, your arm starts to hurt after the 30th throw, especially if you have a fanatical Labrador and 3) it gives tremendous extension so your dog can enjoy a longer ‘chase.’ Another useful aspect is that you can use it with any tennis ball so don’t spend your money buying expensive Chuckit!-brand balls…so not worth it!
The unfortunate part about living in NYC is that space is limited, especially at dog parks. I have stopped using the Chuckit! in my local dog parks because balls end up flying too far.
Nonetheless, this is a great tool to have for dog owners with large breeds that love to chase tennis balls!
